Garden of 09

After a few days when the temperatures soared past 100 degrees, we're starting to get some good yield from the garden. I just picked three cucumbers and a head of romaine lettuce. There are several ancho chilis The red cabbage is getting closer, and the garden is overrun by tomato plants. I remain disappointed that we didn't get many peas and the beans weren't that plentiful either. There is some squash and pumpkin? starting to grow well and I am starting to get more sophisticated in how I get the cucumbers to hang in a trellis. I need to get some twine or string to hang the vines. If I don't it will be a lot harder to find the fruits of the watering and planting.
